Now apply the smell to everywhere. Type 4-20 civilization here we come.

Id hate that because we'd get desensitized to the smell.
Eh plant ain't hurting anyone so it should be left alone, but knowing how this stuff goes it'll likely get uprooted because its "evil drug plant thing".
Personally I also think it looks quite pretty sat between the rest of the plants and its not even flowering yet.
Could be wild marijuana. That shit grows all over the place in Nebraska. You can have an entire square mile of pasture covered in the stuff.

if the government planted male cannabis everywhere, that would make all outdoor grows much less effective if they wanted to

It's pretty common during summer north of the metro area in MN
I swear when I was down in Kentucky I could see the shit growing along ditches.

Not really, they have [url=http://i.imgur.com/v6k9NK4.png]fundamental differences[/url] but the differences for most people are vernacular.

absolutely no one considers Vancouver, Washington the "real" Vancouver, except for maybe people from there.
Other than it being the oldest city on the west coast, yeah.
[QUOTE=Skyward;48260995]Everyone where I live calls them roundabouts or rotaries.[/QUOTE]
Most people here call the one singular roundabout we have "the circle-jerk", because whoever designed it thought it'd be a brilliant idea to place a 3-4 ft. tall, 15-20 ft. wide brick planter in the middle so you can't see if there's any traffic in the circle. :downs:
VPD finished their investigation. They are letting it grow!

Then you don't partake in the right activities to be of any confidence in this matter. I can assure you it's completely true.

The way I was taught, it seemed to me that all plants were hermaphrodites, but they could only cross-pollinate or reproduce asexually for some reason. The teachers never, ever made a distinction between male and female plants; they just told us about the different parts in a way that suggested that all plants had both.

Your teachers weren't specific enough.

Not really
Think of it between a speedbump and a roundabout, it's just an unavoidable obstacle used to slow down traffic in residential areas as drivers have to slow down and corner around it

Yes, in high school biology the concept of plants without bisexual flowers is never elaborated on.

So like a British mini roundabout?

Typically here there'd be an object or raised sidewalkish thing in the centre so people are forced to go around it rather than just obeying the rule. They're physically forced to.

Some do, that was just the first photo I found on Google.

We have plenty of roundabouts here in Vancouver, but around the more rural cities we don't have as much and there's less chances of people doing stuff like this, it's mostly Vancouver BC where stuff like this goes on.
[QUOTE=HybridTheroy;48270027]Your teachers weren't specific enough.[/QUOTE]
To be fair, [i]most[/i] plants produce bisexual flowers. To say that there mostly or only male and female plants would be even more inaccurate.
That being said, it really is quite incredible that it seems like this isn't elaborated on in most American curricula. I wonder if there's some stupid reason for that.
You know you're a bad Dutchie when Americans know more about plants than you :v:

Using street view with that URL saves you guys a lot of time on what a traffic circle is here in Canada.

A traffic circle IS a roundabout. What you're talking about is a chicane.
Traffic circles provide traffic management at intersections (like the one in the article). While they do have a side effect of slowing down traffic, their main purpose is to provide a fluid and more efficient way of navigating an intersection. In neighborhoods like this, smaller traffic circles are great because not only do they provide a more fluid method of getting through an intersection, but their chicane-like effects improve neighborhood safety by ensuring people can't just blow straight through the intersection.
Chicanes are obstacles placed with the main purpose of creating extra turns in a road, forcing drivers to slow down to maneuver them.

If we had that in Vancouver, people would go straight through the middle to save time. There needs to be an object impassable by Lamborghini or Ferrari.

Pretty sure Vancouver, Canada, is just as [I]real[/I] as Vancouver, WA. Not quite sure what you mean by that lol.
If you want to get technical though, Vancouver, Canada is always rated as one of the most livable cities in the world. Doesn't get much more real than that.

I think he just means Vancouver Canada is the more recognizable name. It's the one people think of when they hear "Vancouver".
